The way that the wines are listed is actually the way most restaurants
around here (and most other places) list them. The list certainly
supports Virginia wines. I found the pricing on the Bordeaux to be a
bit strange since one could buy the Leoville Barton for $110 but the
Chateau Palmer was $280 when on release they were about $20 apart in
price. I just checked and Parker actually rated the Leoville Barton
higher than the Palmer. Go figure!
